I am so excited! Every year for the last twelve years, usually in August, I have attended a women's weekend event called "Women of Faith." Each year I went with family and friends in a group. The event sells out very fast so we purchase tickets for the next year on the first night of the event. Tomorrow is the first night of the two day conference. Great speakers, drama and music. A fun time for women to relax and drink in God. This year is especially nice for me.
God has been doing great things in my life. Many areas of 'broken' are being mended and vision for future endeavors have taken shape. I am very hopeful that God will speak even more into my spirit during the next two days. I am going expecting it to be so. This year also holds another fantastic blessing. I get to meet one of the platform speakers Pat Smith, wife of Emmitt Smith a retired professional football player.
I had entered a contest to attend a Pat Smith's Girlfriend retreat in late September. Although I was not chosen my story was featured on TV and Pat talked about areas of my broken life that she could directly relate to from her life. All of us have them, those areas that have hurt and wounded us deeply. We are seeking healing so that we can walk a life of restoration. I'm watching God do exactly that with me and He is big enough to do it you.
Lord, I am in awe of your provision of healing and what the restored vessel is looking like. The new and old wine skins in scripture are like our past and future lives. You make new things better most times than the original ever looked. The functionality is enhanced because our focus in on You. Thank you. Bless my readers as they offer up 'broken' areas for You to mend. Amen
So as I turned away from the scenic beauty to face the rugged terrain of this mountain I am pumped to get moving. It is another climb but for every plateau I reach I am gaining confidence to tackle more. I have a pep in my step and a smile on my face. What's next?
